The example assumes that a DataColumnMappingCollection collection and a DataColumnMapping object have been created.

C#

public void ChangedMyMind()
{
    // ...
    // create mappings and mapping
    // ...
    if (mappings.Contains((Object) mapping))
    {
        mappings.Remove((Object) mapping);
    }
    else
    {
        mappings.Add((Object) mapping);
        Console.WriteLine("Index of new mapping: " +
            mappings.IndexOf((Object) mapping));

{
    // ...
    // create columnMappings
    // ...
    if (!columnMappings.Contains("Description"))
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Error: no such table in collection.");
    }
    else
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Name {0}",
            columnMappings["Description"].ToString());
        Console.WriteLine("Index: {0}",
            columnMappings.IndexOf("Description").ToString());
